23.3. CLI Commands

Unless specified otherwise, all listed commands for the JBoss Data Grid CLIs can be used with both the Library Mode and Server Mode CLIs. Specifically, the deny (see Section 23.3.8, “The deny Command”), grant (see Section 23.3.14, “The grant Command”), and roles (see Section 23.3.19, “The roles command”) commands are only available on the Server Mode CLI.

23.3.1. The abort Command

The abort command aborts a running batch initiated using the start command. Batching must be enabled for the specified cache. The following is a usage example:
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/namedCache]> start
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/namedCache]> put a a
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/namedCache]> abort
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/namedCache]> get a
null

23.3.2. The begin Command

The begin command starts a transaction. This command requires transactions enabled for the cache it targets. An example of this command's usage is as follows:
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/namedCache]> begin
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/namedCache]> put a a
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/namedCache]> put b b
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/namedCache]> commit

23.3.3. The cache Command

The cache command specifies the default cache used for all subsequent operations. If invoked without any parameters, it shows the currently selected cache. An example of its usage is as follows:
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/namedCache]> cache ___defaultcache
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/___defaultcache]> cache
___defaultcache
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/___defaultcache]>

23.3.4. The clear Command

The clear command clears all content from the cache. An example of its usage is as follows:
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/namedCache]> put a a
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/namedCache]> clear
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/namedCache]> get a
null

23.3.5. The commit Command

The commit command commits changes to an ongoing transaction. An example of its usage is as follows:

[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/namedCache]> cache newCache
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/newCache]>

23.3.8. The deny Command

When authorization is enabled and the role mapper has been configured to be the ClusterRoleMapper, principal to role mappings are stored within the cluster registry (a replicated cache available to all nodes). The deny command can be used to deny roles previously assigned to a principal:
[remoting://localhost:9999]> deny supervisor to user1

Note

The deny command is only available to the JBoss Data Grid Server Mode CLI.

23.3.9. The disconnect Command

none
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/namedCache]> encoding --list
memcached
hotrod
none
rest
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/namedCache]> encoding hotrod

23.3.11. The end Command

The end command ends a running batch initiated using the start command. An example of its usage is as follows:

[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/namedCache]> evict a

23.3.13. The get Command

The get command shows the value associated with a specified key. For primitive types and Strings, the get command prints the default representation. For other objects, a JSON representation of the object is printed. An example of its usage is as follows:
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/namedCache]> put a a
[jmx://localhost:12000/MyCacheManager/namedCache]> get a
a

23.3.14. The grant Command

When authorization is enabled and the role mapper has been configured to be the ClusterRoleMapper, the principal to role mappings are stored within the cluster registry (a replicated cache available to all nodes). The grant command can be used to grant new roles to a principal as follows:
[remoting://localhost:9999]> grant supervisor to user1

Note

The grant command is only available to the JBoss Data Grid Server Mode CLI.

23.3.15. The info Command

The info command displaysthe configuration of a selected cache or container. An example of its usage is as follows:

When authorization is enabled and the role mapper has been configured to be the ClusterRoleMapper, the principal to role mappings are stored within the cluster registry (a replicated cache available to all nodes). The roles command can be used to list the roles associated to a specific user, or to all users if one is not given:
[remoting://localhost:9999]> roles user1
[supervisor, reader]

Note

The roles command is only available to the JBoss Data Grid Server Mode CLI.

23.3.20. The rollback Command
